Canadian Thanksgiving

My parents were down for Canadian Thanksgiving (one month ago now!).  It was a nice time, and a big weekend for Ashley: her first solid food!

Ashley enjoyed showing off her UltraSaucer to Grandpa and Grandma:

She tried on her Halloween costume, which her second cousin Laird generously let her borrow:

Checking herself out in her mirror:

After trying out her costume, she got her first taste of solid food for lunch:



The weather was nice—the cat spent most of the weekend in the open windows, watching squirrels:

For Thanksgiving dinner Nancy made Alton Brown's turkey recipe and Paula Deen's  "Good Old Country Stuffing". Perfect!

We went for a walk at the West Hartford Reservoir:

Grandma got plenty of time with Ashley, and read her lots of stories:

But attempts to read to Ashley often end up with an attempt to grab and bite the book:
